Throwing stuff at the internet to see what sticks


Monday, October 14, 2002  

It's our last day here in New York, and I can't tell you what a thrill it is that the sun has finally deigned to acknowledge the existence of this little island.

Despite the weather, it's been a great trip. We got to wander all over Manhattan, eat plenty of great meals, witness the beautiful and moving wedding of an old friend, go on a bar crawl with Sars (if you can count two bars as a "crawl"), learn all about the subway, and use up an entire umbrella. Our plane leaves tonight at around sevenish, so we still have time today to do a little more exploring. More specifically, we're exploring the Strand bookstore near Union Square. It might not have been wise to leave that for our last day, actually. We may end up hanging there and not getting to the airport until some time next week. Time has a funny way of disappearing for us in bookstores.

Provided we aren't drawn too inexorably into the black hole of the printed word (the used printed word, no less), we'll be back on Central Time within the next twelve hours, and I'll be back to my regular schedule tomorrow. Thanks for your patience during these brief and sporadic updates. And thanks to New York.
